This is a game of naming people in the public eye. The trick is: the first letter of the celebrity’s last name dictates what the first letter of the next person’s first name must be. For example, if the first person names “George Washington,” the next person might say “Walt Disney,” or another celebrity whose name begins with W. Keep going until someone gets stumped. Special challenge: if you can name someone whose first and last name starts with the same letter—here, like “Walt Whitman,”—then the direction reverses and the person who just went has to name the next celebrity. This game also works with geography—simply use the last letter of the place named as the first letter of the next place. For example, “Kentucky” could lead to “Yemen.”
